Videos for June 27th - July 3rd

June 28th: Most Powerful Laptop vs Desktop
July 1st: Best Gaming Laptops of 2022 - Mid Year Update
Once those videos are ready I'm planning on doing application testing on the Ryzen 7 6800H. My partner finished the game testing on it and the 12700H last week, so once that's done I'll be able to get the long awaited comparison video done for next week.
At this stage I'm thinking about doing what I did last year, which is split it into two stand alone videos. One covering application differences and the other covering games. We tested 20 games at two resolutions to be fairly thorough, so we get more out of the time spent testing to split it up.
Otherwise late last week I finished comparisons between the G14 and Blade 14, as well as Zephyrus M16 and G15 so those will be coming in the coming weeks.
The Dell G15 5520 is being returned tomorrow before the review was complete due to too many issues with the laptop. It blue screened 6+ times during my video playback battery test which is honestly pathetic, something is clearly wrong and the Alienware software doesn't even load up, so they're replacing it. Seems more likely this is just an issue with my sample rather than all of them, but I'll still mention it. Not expecting the replacement unit until later in the week so that will delay things a bit.
The ASUS Scar 17 SE arrived last week though, so my partner has been testing that one, probably a couple of weeks at least until I can get the review done, but trying to prioritize it as I don't think anyone has covered it just yet.
